This thread displays a lot of ignorance but it’s entertaining.

Agreed.
Still doesnt mean it works, nor does it mean it doesnt. We dont know. Surely we can agree on that? Agreed. My point is did you really expect trump to say we had nothing? Ummm... honestly when he first mentioned it, I hadn't even considered possible treatments. In hindsight, no I'm not surprised. Looking at any single press briefing, I dont mind most of what he says about it. I've heard him say multiple times "it might work and it might not". That's fine by me. But I wish he wouldn't be talking about it DAILY.

For those that want to take this drug, here is a posting from a person I know that had to take it a few years back: Hydroxychloroquine, has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat malaria, lupus, Rheumatoid and other autoimmune ailments but hasn't yet been proven effective and safe in treating the COVID-19. I took it 10 years ago to battle malaria... Hydroxychloroquine did (for me)and may (for others) cause these side effects: * headache. * dizziness. * loss of appetite. * nausea. * diarrhea. * stomach pain. * vomiting. * skin rash. * May conflict and combine to a toxic level with diabetes drugs.
Despite “Promotion” of the drug being “safe and worth a try”, read the label for more serious side effects:
“Side effects may include a slow heartbeat, symptoms of heart failure (such as shortness of breath, swelling ankles/feet, unusual tiredness, unusual/sudden weight gain), mental/mood changes (such as anxiety, depression, rare thoughts of suicide, hallucinations), hearing changes (such as ringing in the ears, hearing loss), easy bruising/bleeding, signs of infection (such as sore throat that doesn't go away, fever), signs of liver disease (such as severe stomach/abdominal pain, yellowing eyes/skin, dark urine), muscle weakness, unwanted/uncontrolled movements (including tongue/face twitching), hair loss, hair/skin color changes. This medication may cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Tell your doctor right away if you develop symptoms of low blood sugar, such as sudden sweating, shaking, hunger, blurred vision, dizziness, or tingling hands/feet. If you have diabetes, be sure to check your blood sugars regularly. Your doctor may need to adjust your diabetes medication. Get medical help right away if you have any very serious side effects, including: severe dizziness, fainting, fast/irregular heartbeat, seizures. This medication may cause serious eye/vision problems. The risk for these side effects is increased with long-term use of this medication and with taking this medication in high doses. Get medical help right away if you have any symptoms of serious eye problems, including: sensitivity to light, vision changes (such as light flashes/streaks, blurred vision, difficulty reading, missing areas of vision).” It might be the right medicine for someone with autoimmunity problems, but probably not a good "let's all take this" medicine. Surely you realize how silly it is to say “a person I know” took this medication and then copy and paste the Adverse Effects tab off of Drugs.com as a reason why we shouldn’t if infected by Covid19. What dosage did he take? For how long? What drug interactions were at play here with his other meds? Did he drink alcohol? Any hepatic impairment? Renal? The list goes on and we haven’t been provided any of that. Nobody “wants” to take this drug but your malaria stricken friend is likely here today because he did as his physician advised. It’s an option that has worked for many and I hope you too would evaluate the risks and benefits if Heaven forbid you were so advised.

Hope is a good thing. False hope can sometimes be problematic.

Millions of Viet Nam vets took it! I took it for 18 months and the only side effect on me was the trots. After 3 days nothing. Damn right i would take again!!!! 
I would agree with you , but then we would both be WRONG !!!!!

Safer would be a comparison between 2 or more drugs or methods.
What are the other drugs and do you know the success rate? Thank you, All Doctors on Earth

I get the idea that there are certain people on this forum who will think it wont be acceptable to reopen the country unless Trump loses. Is that a fair statement.  It would appear so
